Why Napa Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Napa, with a city population of 84,073 and a steady growth rate of 0.40% annually, sits in the heart of California wine country where residential improvements and careful land management are common. The local climate—about 228 sunny days each year and 34.25 inches of annual rainfall—creates a need for landscaping and hardscape solutions that balance dry-season aesthetics with wet-season drainage. In this setting, homeowners and contractors turn to quality aggregates for driveways, pathways, erosion control, base material for pavers, and garden projects. Gravel is valued here for permeability, durability, and low maintenance; consistent sizing and good compaction help properties resist erosion and manage runoff in Napa’s hardiness zone 8b conditions, reducing long-term maintenance on sloped lots and landscaped areas.Popular Projects in Napa This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Napa gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Napa.
Expect a range: material-only gravel deliveries in Napa commonly run about $30 to $100 per ton depending on type (pea gravel is toward the lower end, specialty decomposed granite toward the higher end). Basic delivery and spread by a hauler may add fees; DIY spreading lowers cost. Full contractor installation with grading, base preparation, compaction, and edging typically ranges from about $6 to $12 per square foot, but complex jobs on steep slopes or with drainage work can cost more. Contact Hello Gravel for local quotes and our available next-day delivery option when eligible.
For Napa’s wet winters and dry summers, well-draining, angular crushed rock (such as 3/4" crushed stone or road base) and decomposed granite (DG) are common choices because they shed water and compact well on slopes. Pea gravel drains well and is comfortable for paths and patios but can shift on steep grades unless contained with edging or fabric. For vineyard access and steeper driveways, contractors often use a compactable base rock (class II or road base) topped with crushed stone for strength and erosion resistance.
Use this quick method: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in feet) / 27, then estimate tons = cubic yards * 1.4 (approximate density for gravel). Example: a 12' x 40' driveway (480 sq ft) at a 3" top layer needs about 4.4 cubic yards or roughly 6.2 tons. Always order 5% to 10% extra to allow for compaction, grading, and waste, and remember Hello Gravel’s minimum order is 3 tons.
Permitting depends on the scope and location: small residential resurfacing often needs no county permit, but new driveways, changes that alter drainage, work near creeks, or grading on slopes commonly require permits from Napa County. Many HOAs have design standards about surface materials, color, and edging, so check your HOA rules before ordering. When in doubt, contact Napa County Planning or your HOA and consult Hello Gravel’s team for guidance on project scope and material quantities.
Napa’s wet winters increase washout risk on sloped surfaces, so use a stable base (crushed base rock), geotextile fabric, and proper drainage features like swales, culverts, and check dams to deflect runoff. Larger angular stone at the upslope toe and edging (metal, timber, or concrete) help hold surface gravel in place. Expect occasional replenishing after heavy storms and plan for annual inspections and touch-ups on steep grades.
A well-installed gravel driveway in Napa can last 10 to 20 years with periodic maintenance like regrading, adding material, and maintaining drainage; high-traffic or steep sites may need more frequent work. Gravel is lower-cost upfront than asphalt or concrete but requires more ongoing upkeep; asphalt and concrete are more durable and lower-maintenance but cost significantly more to install. Choose gravel when you want lower initial cost, easier repairs, and good drainage, especially for rural or vineyard properties.
Yes—gravel is commonly used for vineyard access roads in Napa because it is economical and drains well. Typical specs are a compacted base of 4" to 6" of class II or road-base material topped with 2" to 3" of crushed rock or 3/4" minus, with proper crowning to shed water. Vineyards often add geotextile fabric and install culverts or cross drains to manage seasonal runoff and prevent erosion.
Open-graded, angular aggregates like 3/4" crushed stone and crushed rock with little fines drain best because water can percolate through void spaces. Pea gravel also drains well but can migrate without containment. Avoid very fine or compacting mixes if you need rapid drainage; instead pair open-graded stone with subdrain systems or French drains for critical runoff areas.
Common recommendations are geotextile fabric under the gravel to separate soils and prevent contamination, a compacted base layer (class II or road base) for structure, and sturdy edging (metal, treated timber, or concrete) to contain material. Drainage features like swales, culverts, catch basins, and periodic cross drains are often necessary on sloped sites, and compaction with a plate or roller improves longevity. Request these options when getting a contractor quote or add notes at checkout if you want them considered.
Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and contracting haulers throughout Napa to deliver a wide range of gravel types and can connect you with local crews who offer spreading and compacting at the driver's discretion. Availability of spreading/installation services varies by supplier and truck, so request it during checkout and our team can help coordinate. For specific installation bids, we recommend collecting local contractor quotes after you confirm material type and quantities with Hello Gravel.
Match the material to use: pea gravel is comfortable for walkways and patios but can move on slopes; crushed rock provides strength and stability for driveways and high-traffic areas; decomposed granite (DG) makes attractive, compacted paths and is popular in Napa for a natural look but needs stabilization on steep grades. Consider slope, desired appearance, drainage needs, and maintenance tolerance—Hello Gravel’s material calculator and sales team can help you pick the best option for your specific Napa project.
